The pastor urges all members and visitors to Zion to take notice of the above announcement and attend in time to take part in the entire services. It is desired that all will bring their Bibles and come with hearts spiritually tuned to get the full benefit of the hour of praise and worship. It is not so much how much time we spend in service as how thoroughly we enter into the spirit of it. Parents are requested to have the children at Sunday school by 9:20 and attend with them if possible. The men's and women's Bible classes continue to grow both in numbers and in enthusiasm, but there is still room for you. It was noticeable last Sunday that the changes growing out of the promotion and readjustment of classes worked out very satisfactorily, teachers and pupils both entering heartily into the effort to make a bigger and better school. If you happened to be absent last Sunday, don't fail to be with us at the opening Sunday morning.

This is the question asked by every member of our church who is desirous of securing a new church. Some are asking what will they do? Others what will I do? And the fellow that will look the matter square in the face using the I instead of they, is the fellow that we are looking for and depending on for success. Sunday is destined to make history for our church, and no doubt every member of the church is looking forward to a day well spent in the service of the Lord. States and Liberia. We are very much interested in the subject, and I believe that five hundred men of the race can be found who would put one hundred dollars into such a project. This is not a charitable object, but purely business from what I know about shipping facilities from Liberia. I believe that either of these com- Will all make a sacrifice? Yes, because we want a new church. Will all do their best? Yes, because we want a new church and we want it soon. The following program will be faithfully carried out with God's help and the help of the faithful. Sunrise prayer meeting at 6 o'clock sharp.

England Fails to Appreciate Sacrifice of Black Men Discharged Colored Soldiers Attacked by Jealous Whites LONDON, June 20.—(By Mail).—Race Riots in the northern part of England and Wales have created a stir throughout the country, principally because of the novelty of such occurrences in these islands. or aliens with colored skins to be seen in Great Britain, but the exigencies of war caused the importation of a large number of them to work on seaport docks and to recruit the ranks of manual laborers, depleted by the call for fighting men. They were brought from various parts of the world. South Africa and the West Indies supplying the bulk of them. Many Arabs also were imported. Repatriation of these colored men has been slow, but the consequence that many demobilized British soldiers have had what to them seemed the bitter experience of seeing strangers engaged at profitable employment while they, themselves looked in vain for work. ROSE-DOWNING NUPTIALS BEAU- TIFUL AFFAIR Special to The Forum—Roonoke, Va. Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church was filled to its capacity Wednesday June 25, to witness the marriage of Miss Letitia Downing, the only laughter of Dr. and Mrs. L. L. Downing and Dr. Bert Andrew Rose, of Dayton, Ohio. The church was beautifully decorated with palms and baskets of cut flowers. The bridal party stood before a lattice work altar banked with white satin pillows, upon which the bride and groom knelt and plighted their vows. Mr. Arnette Holland, of Roanoke, sang "When You are Truly Mine" and "Beloved, It Is Morn," accompanied by Miss Lola Branch, of Oxford, N. C. Mr. Carder Downing, a brother of the bride, played a violin solo, "Berceuse," accompanied by Miss Branch. Promptly at 2:30 o'clock the bidal party entered to the strains of Mendelssohn and Lohengrin wedding march, played by Miss Branch. Dr. Bullock, of Danville, Va., Miss Marian Bower, of Roanoke, wearing the beaded Georgette crepe, with pink and blue messaline trimmings; Mr. Lewis Downing, a brother of the bride, Miss Emma Curle, of Roanoke, wearing a pink beaded Georgette crepe; Master William Claytor, of Roanoke, clad in white, carried the platinum ring hidden in a rose on a silver tray; little Miss Nina Harris, of Richmond, Va., wearing a white organdy over blue messaline, with rosettes of blue ribbon, and an embroidered organdy poke bonnet with trimmings of blue, scattered rose petals along the way. Miss Diana Dent, of Louisburg, N. C., was maid of honor and wore pink grass-grain Resentment over this state of affairs quickly developed into hatred when the soldiers observed that the strangers were trying to cultivate the acquaintance of white girls. A number of Negroes took white wives. A medical officer in the troubled district describes the situation as serious both from a health and economic point of view, and asserts that 400,000 demobilized men are still without employment while Negroes are empties?" he asks. "It is nothing less than iniquitous that the men who have fought for their country should find the jobs they need occupied by Negroes." A few months ago when Germany had England fighting with her back to the wall the black subjects of Great Britain were called upon to relieve the imminent danger. It was the black soldiers who fought for England, France and America that turned defeat into victory. And, now, some narrow-minded white men are unwilling to give these heroes an opportunity to work.

The bride went in on the arm of her brother, Dr. E. D. Downing, and was met at the altar by the groom and his best man, Dr. L. C. Downing, a brother of the bride. The bride wore a beautiful white brocade satin draped over silver lace, with criminings of pearls; the court train fell gracefully from the shoulders, with hangings of pearls. The veil was a coronet effect caught with orange blossoms and silver ribbon. The bride carried a shower bouquet of bridal roses, ferns and sweet peas. Her only ornaments being pearls and platinum rings, gifts of the groom. The beautiful ring ceremony of the Presbyterian Church was performed by Dr. L. L. Downing, father of the bride.

Price 5 Cents Maruis Okuma Sees Danger to His People in White Domination YOKOHAMA, June 10.—(By Mail)—Failure of the peace conference at Paris to adopt Japans proposal of racial equality was denounced by Marquis Okuma, formerly premier of Japan, in an address he delivered recently before the Japan Civilization society. "It is a blot on justice and humanity that the whites, who constitute less than one third of the world's population, assume the control of the world, and I declare that a justice and a humanity which do not recognize racial equality are scarcely worthy of the name," he said. "Germany has hitherto been a great influence in the world, and this influence is about to be replaced by Anglo-American influence which will produce a far-reaching effect on the future peace of the world and the weal of mankind." Concluding, Marquis Okuma said that the Japanese are considerably inferior to westerners in intellectual powers, physical strength and wealth and they must show no hesitation in possessing themselves of whatever is required to make them the equal of others. He added: "There is nothing wrong in securing development, morally, economically and socially. If the best efforts are made in these directions it is to be hoped that no great difficulty will be experienced in surpassing the arrogant westerners and bringing them to their knees."

Much gratification is felt at the well-attended services each Sunday, The increase of strangers and visitors is an item for congratulation. ‘The vicar preached last Sunday on Amos, his time and works, contrasting con- ditions now with especial reference to the progressive but immoral Jewish populace of Judah and Israel. The book of Amos contains a description and condemnation of conditions which are rife today; and it would appear that two thousand years of Christian civilization have not changed funda- mentally the mind of man from bes- tial depravity to human dignity. In the people of power und influence, whether gained by guile or craft or circumstance, show today by their open conduct their frantic desire to retain among them this power and influence. They mete out just enough to those a little below their ilk, to Keep that ilk from open outbreak and violence, while those different from them racially they endeavor most as- tutely to relegate to the meanest and most contemptible place in society, land towards them show the most in- tolerable behavior. There is a free- masonry among them to fix these un- fortunate in a permanent condition of social, economic, and political degra- dation, and so stamp indelibly upon them the notion of inferiority that discouragement and despair will force them to resign themselves to this calculated savagery of Anglo-Saxon- ism. | When moved by the spirit of God. Amos traveled to Bethel and con- demned the evil practices of Isract, invited them to change their custom, and substitute the good for the evil. and warned them of the judgment «f the God of eternal right who is alse the Father of all men. He was con. demned, hated, called a radical, point ed out as a dangerous alien, and in- |vited by the high priest to return to his own country and there “to pro- [ries The very same occurrence takes place today with the true proph lets of God.

Berlin.—He who believes that the former German royalty has disabused itself of the idea that it ruled, "by God's grace" is mistaken, says Vorwaerts, quoting the announcement of the famous Johannitter order, just engraved in a Berlin shop, which begins: "We. Wilhelm Eitel Friedrich Christian Karl, by God's grace prince of Prussia, herewith proclaim that we, after investigation and on its invitation, have accepted the position of honorable knight of the order, wherefore we, as master of Brandenburg have attached our highest individual signature." "Inevitably," says Vorwaerts, "one thinks while viewing this comedy of the valued Lieut. Eckdahl's Ibsen's wild duck, whose greatest bliss is to put on in a closed room the uniform he dare not wear in public. In the circle of the Johannitter order Elteel Friedrich still feels himself 'by God's grace.'" Oldest Customer in Nation. Columbus, O.-The oldest dry goods customer in Ohio, and likely the oldest customer of any store in this country, was claimed by E. M. Thirkield at the Ohio Retail Dry Goods association convention. He said he was connected with the department store of E. B. Thirkield & Sons company at Franklin, and that James McLean, one hundred and four years old, made his first purchase in that store March 10, 1834, 85 years ago, and that he is still a good customer. 35-37 West 6th St. Special Tables for Ladies and Meals and Lunches at Right SCIALTY.

A SHIP FOR AFRICA There are three projects under way to get one or more ships by American Negroes to run between the United panies could make a ship pay for its self within six months. I believe within three years men who would put money into such a project could get from twenty-five to one hundred dollars for every one invested. If you would like to consider such an investment write me and I will make an effort of helping the moral, financial and spiritual development of the forty thousand Americo-Liberians and the more than two million Aborigines, and I will put you in touch with the best of these projects. I am heartily in favor of securing a boat, no matter how small, so it is sea worthy, to carry to Liberia the things needed and to market the many, many valuable things found and produced in that country. Here is a chance for the best investment possible. Yours in His service, L. G. JORDAN, 710 S. 19th St., Philedalphia, Pa. Mr. J. M.
